The Reef at Universal’s Volcano Bay

Two-sentence insider summary
The first of Volcano Bay’s two leisure pools, The Reef is five-and-a-half feet deep and sports its own private waterfall. The real stand-out feature here, however, is watching riders shoot down the Ko’okiri Body Plunge, whose clear plexi tube snakes through the pool.

Fear factor
0 out of 5. You just swim!

What you wish you knew before you experienced it
The Reef is home to multiple TapTu Play points.

OI fun fact
This is a perfect spot to look up to the Krakatau volcano and observe many of the cleverly-hidden Tiki faces carved into the rock work.
